That could fill the gap left by the Stockton operated short to Durham, now extending to Newcastle.
With it extending to Newcastle, a vehicle needs to pick up the 8.15 ex Durham back to Middlesbrough - presumably, this is the one.
Too early for a scholars, but no idea if there is a workers service they have it could have been on earlier.
